Thank you!!! I'm a little less worry now. So what does I have to proof them that I can afford my mom treatment? Even thou I already submit my tax income for NVC?

Sorry, but I'm not aware of what you have to do to prove that, should they ask it of you. I'm just aware with certain medical conditions they will ask for extra proof that beneficiary's medical condition can be paid for without becoming a public burden.
